Inode,
I get your analogy, but that really isn't my point at all. None of this is about luck.
I don't think you do get my analogy. The "luck" portion of the analogy is irrelevant.

Let me try one more time.

"Unfair" means the playing field wasn't level to begin with.

"Stealing" involves something that used to belong to you, but was unjustly taken away, usually by force or subterfuge.

They are two different things. Can't prove that something was stolen just because the playing field wasn't level to begin with.

Otherwise you can claim that EVERY election that the GOP lost was "stolen" just on the basis of the playing field being lopsided.

And that's where you enter the realm of the Q, because you will no longer recognize the legitimacy of any election except those you win.

That's being a Sore Loserman.
